Hello
Can you help me with the correct syntax for Wiechert instruments response correction in SAC.
Who can I know which period, damping and magnification it's the algorithm using by default?
I try this sintax :
"transfer from WIECH freeperiod 'To' magnification 'Am' damping 'e' "

And I also tried whitout specify the constants and the result its very similar.
Thank you all in advance

    Hola Raul,

    want you apply the response file to sac file and convert it to Wiechert
    output?
    Please give a look in transfer command

    sac> help transfer

    I think it can clarify as work transfer command.

    Abrazo,

    Milton

  • Hi Raúl,
    Say you have the appropraite polezeros file (e.g. SAC_PZs_stat_BHZ) for the
    SAC file (e.g. stat.SAC) you are looking at. Then, you would do

    READ stat.SAC
    TRANSFER FROM POLEZERO SAC_PZs_stat_BHZ TO WEICH FREQ F1 F2 F3 F4

    Where F1, F2, F3, F4 are tapering frequency limits. As mentioned by Milton,
    take a look at the SAC Manual to better understand the use of TRANSFER.

      Hello.
      Thank You for your help.
      In this way the syntax is correct and works perfectly.
      However, if I want to remove the Wiechert response from a time serie, Still
      dont know what are the constants by default in the algoritm.

      I will keep searching and reading the SAC manuals.

      Thanks again both of you.
